ASK DOREEN
Give Arizona a Chance Dear Doreen, Mad doesn’t even describe how I feel about how hot it is. I kept hearing about the “dry heat” before moving here from the northwest, but this is unbearable. Can I sell my house for a profit after just five months? I heard the prices have really gone up in that time. —Misguided and Melted Dear M&M, First, you might want to give yourself some time to adjust. although no one will argue with you about the heat, many people adapt and don’t find it unbearable after a while. You might regret selling in such a rush. and even with the fact that prices have gone up, it’s unlikely you would be able to cover the closing costs, Hoa fees, title expenses, and still turn a profit. If you are willing to break even or lose money then you might be able to move quickly if you think that’s what you want. I think you should give arizona a fair chance, and if you still want to sell in a year or two, you might be in a better position to do so. —Doreen

Tennessee Takeover of Cafe Aroma
B
ob Adler has been dreaming of opening his own restaurant since 1990. So, purchasing Cafe Aroma last month and renaming it the Tennessee Grill was his chance at a dream-come-true.
Bob Adler
Adler described the transition as being a “plane in mid-flight and changing pilots.” Adler’s first move was to hire a baker to offer daily fresh-baked breads, muffins and pastries. And according to Adler, all vegetables used are sourced from Arizona farms. “That’s what I feed my family, so that’s what I want to feed my customers,” he said. His plan is to slowly transform the menu into a Southern-influenced selection to eventually include barbecue favorites. He’s excited to offer Anthem residents a taste of family recipes from his home state and show off his signature barbecue sauces: Smoky Mountain Sweet and Smoky Mountain Zinger. THE

Until then, the Tennessee Grill is open for business. io Tennessee Grill 4220 W. Summit Walk Court 623-551-1500 Monday–Sunday 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Not this summer. By Brad Wood bwood@anthemnews.com

owner of Daisy Mountain Painting, said the warming trend is welcome and t has long seemed the Anthem unexpected. “For this time of year, I’m economy is inversely related to the weather. When the temperature cools, surprised. Usually when summer hits, the economy heats up. Conversely, people go on vacation and we prepare to when the mercury rises, the economy be slow. Now, we’re having a hard time takes a bit of an ice bath. One of the finding time to take off.” Cottrell said contributing factors is the ebb and his business is up 30 percent over this flow of seasonal snowbirds and their time last year. migrating dollars. That is, until now. Scott Zychowski, manager of Andrew Businesses are reporting strong numbers Z Jewelry, said he’s seeing a bump in so far this summer, and, while they the summer staple of repairs, custom can’t pinpoint a single reason, many work and bridal remounts.

And then there’s Jen Long, a relative newcomer to the Anthem business landscape. She purchased Plaster World last December. Along with the name change to MudPie Studios and some added store offerings, such as candle making and art classes, came more summer business than expected. “It’s been super busy from when we open the door in the a.m. until closing.” With kids out of school for the summer, it would be expected her business will heat up. But gauging the previous owners’ summer business experience, Long is taken back by the numbers. When summer hit, business went up a whopping 80 percent! “It’s been crazy. I had no idea.” she said. OSR Physical Therapy celebrates 10 years of business in Anthem this year and has weathered the economic extremes.
